Like a party late at night,
Like a kid flying a kite.
Like a man winning a race,
Like a person complimented of their face.
Like a baby playing in the sand,
Like a child going to Disney land.
Like a bird learning to fly,
Like a ton of money falling from the sky.
Like a gamblers hitting the jackpot,
Like a homeless person getting a pot.
Like a mother hearing its baby’s first word,
Like an animal fitting in with a herd.
